FACT! Insurance companies won't pay for flood damage on your home without proper flood protection devices like a sump pump. Some policies even require backup systems.

Battery-Powered Backup Systems

Not all battery backup pumps are created equal. Pump quality, battery size, and the number of batteries (along with the reliability of your electrical service provider) all affect the quality of the system – as well as how long your backup system will perform.

Real Dry has been installing backup systems since 1985 when the first generation of models came to the market. Things have progressed since those early, stripped-down versions, but the concept is primarily the same. We use and recommend several different pump and battery backup system brands, including Wayne, Sumpro, Blue Angel, and NexPump. Ask us about the variety of systems available for immediate installation, including backup systems that can even call your cell phone or send you text alerts and updates on its service.

Sumpro Model 100 Inverter & Backup System

The Sumpro Model 100 is an intelligent battery backup system and power inverter from the good people at Ion Products of Illinois, and we recommend this system for appropriate installations in our customers’ homes. This Sumpro can be used with pumps having a variety of horsepower ratings, and it has an improved feature set including a reduced footprint (to take up less of the precious space in your basement) and even quieter operation. An easy-to-read LCD allows for real-time monitoring of the system and its status. There’s also an alarm contact capability, giving you the option of remote monitoring and notification during regular use or in case of emergency. The unit even has battery charging inputs for solar and wind sources! The Sumpro 100 comes with the 15 Amp inverter unit and a dual battery box with a fuse bar (2 batteries, sold separately). The input & output voltage are standard 120 VAC. Optional features include a stand, an additional battery add-on kit, and the Ion Genesis sump pump controller and sensors. A warranty of 3 years is standard.

Blue Angel Professional Pump Systems

The Blue Angel series of pumps and backup systems are among the most reliable in the industry. Real Dry recommends the DF50 (1/2 HP) and DF33 (1/3 HP) backup installations, depending on the particular needs of each customer. Corrosion-resistant thermoplastic impellers, cast iron pump housings, stainless steel float guards, and dual float switches are just some of the high-quality features and construction techniques used in these sump pump systems. Controlled by a microprocessor that tests the unit regularly all by itself – and even sends alerts to the homeowner in advance of any problems – these Blue Angel systems can call up to FIVE different telephone numbers. On & Off level settings that are user-adjustable, a fully-submersible design, and a powerful 12 VDC motor are some of the other features of the DF50 and DF33 pump systems.
